Dec 1, 2024December 2024 — Cacti/cacti: Delivered two features that enhance installation reliability and UI clarity, with targeted log improvements to reduce onboarding friction and misconfigurations. Key features delivered: Poller Installation Experience Improvements (poller installation mode support and refined installer logs for poller synchronization) and Global Form UI Clarifications (renamed 'Additional Options' to 'Additional Information' and tightened the 'created' field description to reflect when a device was added). Major bugs fixed: improved installer logging around poller synchronization to close guidance gaps and clarified global_form UI to prevent misinterpretations during device provisioning. Overall impact: smoother deployments, faster onboarding, fewer support tickets, and clearer operator guidance. Technologies/skills demonstrated: PHP (installer.php, global_form.php), logging instrumentation, UI/UX refinements, and disciplined change management via git commits.
